For a long time, the Gràcia district has remained very Catalan and without tourists, but in recent years it has opened up to the most curious of visitors. For a thousand and one reasons, a stop at the restaurant Karakala is a must if you are in the area.

 

Perhaps you know Mathias Enard, winner of the 2015 Goncourt Prize with his novel "Boussole". Mathias Enard has been living and writing in Barcelona for years. One of his previous novels "Carrer Robadors" ("Street of Thieves") 2012, evoked the dark side of Barcelona but also this neighborhood of Gràcia "A bourgeois neighborhood, populated by activists and militant associations, Lebanese and Phoenician restaurants, between Catalanity and antiquity. Years later, the writer was involved in another adventure, the creation of Karakala.

 

Not surprisingly, this Lebanese restaurant is a journey in the Mediterranean between East and West. On the menu: hummus, falafel, fattoush, baba ganoush, kafta, shawarma, and other moussaka. A delight at local prices, to give you an idea, the lunch menu is 12,95€.

 

For the authentic oriental soul of the place and for your pre or post-visit to the Casa Vicens, the first masterpiece of Gaudì, which is only an eight-minute walk away.

@Illy
Hello Illy, You're asking whether El Corte Inglés, a popular shopping mall in Barcelona, will be open tomorrow, Saturday, October 12th. Typically, El Corte Inglés follows regular shopping hours on Saturdays, but the specific date you've mentioned, October 12th, is Día de la Hispanidad (Spain's National Day), which is a public holiday. While many shops close on public holidays in Spain, El Corte Inglés in central locations like Plaça de Catalunya often remains open during such holidays, todya from 9am to 9pm. Best,

@CC
Hello CC, To travel from Sitges to Barcelona Airport (specifically Terminal 2), you can take a train but there is no direct train service. Here's how you can do it: Take the R2 Sud train from Sitges: This line runs directly to El Prat de Llobregat station. The train departs frequently from Sitges, and the trip to El Prat de Llobregat takes about 30-35 minutes. Transfer at El Prat de Llobregat: Once you arrive at this station, you need to switch to the R2 Nord train heading to Barcelona Airport (Aeroport T2). This is a short ride of around 6-7 minutes. The overall journey from Sitges to Terminal 2 at Barcelona Airport takes roughly 50-60 minutes, depending on wait times between connections. The trains are generally punctual and frequent, so it’s a convenient option. Best,
